Sometimes I go into a conversation with one point of view - and come out with another. And that’s kind of the point of professional dialogue for me - and why I enjoy @ttradioofficial.bsky.social #teachers

“In addition to the petrol stations, a coot owner selling teeth in Rhoshirwaun says that his company has been drowned at the same time.” Either ‘translate’ on Instagram is having a bad day, or North Wales is another world…

Guide to Gen Alpha exam-maxxing I’ve got tea no cap. This hits different. Slay. No low key panicking before exams. Get a massive W and aura farm the others by catching them lacking. Eat and leave no crumbs. Full main character energy and exam-mogg everyone else. Do a little bit of revision.

Every time someone claims a battle between teachers and parents (particularly SEND “advocates”) please point out that - OVER HALF of teachers ARE parents. Which would mean roughly 1 in 10 teachers is a parent of a child with SEND. Stop making it “them” and “us”.

I’ve been playing with AI to generate me Concept Cartoons for Maths… It’s not quite there yet 😂 #teachers

A lot of heated ‘battle’ talk about parents vs schools/teachers on the SEND reform It’s maybe worth reflecting that some people are both Insulting me as a teacher isn’t getting rid of an enemy, it’s attacking a person you claim to speak for

This half term my boys are climbing the walls… in the Upside Down House

Saw this on a resale app and someone in the Wales squad signing “eBey” is outstanding 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

It’s the rugby Christmas party and my son is out there somewhere on the pitch in his best white trainers…

I am shocked to find out that a man who has consistently shown himself to have an awful public persona for the past 20 years is also awful in private…

Why does AI keep offering to do stuff for me it can’t do? “Would you like that as a downloadable pdf with answers and diagrams?” Yes! “Sorry, I can’t do that”

Can I include my son’s “Class Clown” award as part of his ADHD assessment?

Does your child even play football if your hall isn’t full of black pellets? ⚽️

Perhaps the teacher recruitment crisis is more complex than lots of people think? 🤔

Introducing my youngest…

A half day absence is not always a half day of missed learning. A half day attendance is not always a half day of learning. The “attendance” system measures a very small window of presence at registration times.

So proud of being part of this! The end of edutwitter changed a lot but this shows there are still #teachers out there connecting You can even follow @ttradioofficial.bsky.social here too! And as always you can listen live 🎧

I think the unmeasured small complaints or challenge from parents is also a big drain on staff morale I would imagine this matches a rise in the number of parents willing to be openly critical of school staff in front of their children

My 8yo has his paints out again

“Range of methods” and “balanced approach” are worry for me Often they just mean guess from the pictures Wales is still scared of commitment to Phonics estyn.gov.wales/reading-for-...
